Bypassing the Ima

If the battery is bad but not completely doa (i.e. does not set codes simply with the ign on/engine running) then the IMA boost/limit device might let you retain the autostart/stop and negate the rpm issue.

You can turn the assist down to nothing with the pots so it basically never assists.

The normal or (a lower level of regen to prevent errors) can be retained to keep it topped up for ima autostart/stop etc.

I'm happy to send a free boost pcb to someone with a suitable battery who wants to build and try it.
 
i have honda insight 2013. 2 months ago i had my IMA light popped up, so i got the battery pack replaced. Today i got the IMA light popping up again after 2 month. i don't really know whats the issue is. Can anyone assist?
